Bono reportedly rescued by armed police during Nice terror attack

U2 frontman was dining in a restaurant in the French city when Bastille Day attack took place

U2 frontman Bono was reportedly rescued by armed police while dining in a restaurant in Nice during last week’s terror attacks in the French city.

Last Thursday night (July 14), a truck ploughed into a crowd celebrating Bastille Day in the southern city. The crash left 85 people dead and 202 others injured. The driver of the truck Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel was later shot dead by police and the incident is being treated as a terror attack.

The Mirror reports that Bono was on the terrace of La Petite Maison, a restaurant on the Nice seafront and near where the attack took place.

The band later posted a message to Twitter, saying, “Love is bigger than anything in its way”. See that below.
